The political landscape in Kerala is rattled by allegations of conspiracy surrounding a multi-crore deep-sea fishing deal. CPI(M) leader and former Fisheries Minister J Mercykutty Amma has openly accused IAS officer N Prasanth of being the 'villain' behind the controversy.

Adding fuel to the political fire, Prasanth, now Special Secretary at the Department of Agriculture Development and Farmers' Welfare, recently took to social media to allege that senior IAS officer Jayathilak was orchestrating defamatory news against him.

Mercykutty Amma claims Prasanth, alongside former Leader of Opposition Ramesh Chennithala, manipulated facts for political capital, aiming to sway the 2021 Assembly elections for the UDF. The controversy continues to stir, pointing towards deeper political rifts within Kerala's governance.
